Hi Everyone,
I am Permanent Resident of Canada. I'm going to marry a girl in India in the coming December. She is Indian Citizen. To apply for her PR after marriage, I heard there are two possible options:
1) Apply for her PR in New Delhi office. I heard it takes around 6-8 months to get the PR. She can come to Canada after she gets the PR.
2) Apply for a dependent visa for her. Then after she comes to Canada on dependent visa, apply for her PR at Ottawa office. I have heard she can get work permit also with this option but the processing time is longer around 1.5 years.
I am not sure about the time period in these two options. Please inform me how much is the general time period required for both these options and which is a better option? Also, please inform how much time it takes to get the work permit in Option 2. And is it possible to get a dependent visa and work permit with Option 1? I will really appreciate if someone can share these information with me. Thanks a lot.
